Outdoor unit of refrigeration apparatus
Abstract
In an outdoor unit of a refrigeration apparatus is a blow-out opening configured to deliver air from an air-blowing fan that is covered by a protective grill. The outdoor unit includes an eave part protruding in a direction along which the air is blown out from a top part of the grill. A top surface of the eave part has a water-leading part extending in a direction intersecting the direction along which the air is blown out. The water-leading part leads water dripping down onto the top surface of the eave part to at least one of longitudinal ends of the eave part and a middle of the eave part.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1. An outdoor unit of a refrigeration apparatus in which a blow-out opening configured to deliver air from an air-blowing fan is covered by a protective grill, the outdoor unit comprising:
an eave part protruding beyond the grill in a direction along which the air is blown out from a height position above the grill and below a top surface of the outdoor unit,
a top surface of the eave part being provided with a water-leading part extending in a horizontal direction intersecting the direction along which the air is blown out,
the water-leading part being shaped having at least two upwardly convex areas, with both of two longitudinal ends of the eave part and a middle of the eave part located between the two longitudinal ends of the eave part being formed lower than the at least two upwardly convex areas in the horizontal direction intersecting the direction along which the air is blown out such that the water-leading part leads water dripping down onto the top surface of the eave part to at least one of the longitudinal ends of the eave part and the middle of the eave part.
2. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the water-leading part leads the water dripping down onto the top surface of the eave part to the longitudinal ends of the eave part and the middle of the eave part.
3. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the middle of the eave part is positioned vertically above a rotational center axis of the air-blowing fan.
4. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a rib having a predetermined height.
5. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a groove having a predetermined depth.
6. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein
the middle of the eave part is positioned vertically above a rotational center axis of the air-blowing fan.
7. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a rib having a predetermined height.
8. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a groove having a predetermined depth.
9. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a rib having a predetermined height.
10. The outdoor unit of the refrigeration apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein
the water-leading part includes a groove having a predetermined depth.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
